Need help finding parts!
 

I was recently given a Nitro RC car which is in bad shape. It needs a few things, i dont know what it is really but I found an identical model on ebay....no significant information is found on the listing though. Here is what the model looks like.

</span></font><font face="Verdana"><span style="font-weight: 700;">My question is, does anyone know what kind of car this is? where can i find parts for it? The front right lower and upper arms are completely broken, as well as the front suspension tower. I also need new shocks up front (the right side one is missing, the left side one is perfectly fine).


Hopefully my description is good enough, but if there is confusion, please let me know. Hopefully one of you guys can help me out.

RE: Need help finding parts!
 

Looks like an ebay special cheap chinese clone. Parts are going to be hard to impossible to find. The best you can hope for is that it's a good clone so that you can use the parts from whatever it is a clone of. I don't know much about on road nitros so maybe do a search of the major manufacturers.

these parts are almost impossible to find, you are lucky if you can find parts from name brands that will fit. Things like shocks are pretty much universal, that won't be a problem.

Found a site tonight...

Looks like it has most, if not everything i needed to replace.

Yeah most clone brands either share parts with other main brands or other clone brands ;)
